The Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIR) is a laboratory of the Defence Research & Development Organization (DRDO). Located in Bangalore, Karnataka, involved in the Research & Development of high quality Secure Communication, Command and Control, and Intelligent Systems. CAIR was founded by Arogyaswami Paulraj. CAIR is the primary laboratory for R&D in different areas of Defence Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

History

CAIR was established in October 1986. Its research focus was initially in the areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics, and Control systems. In November 2000, R&D groups working in the areas of Command, Control, Communications & Intelligence (C3I) systems, Communication and Networking, and communication secrecy in Electronics and Radar Development Establishment (LRDE) were merged with CAIR.

CAIR, which was operating from different campuses across Bangalore has now moved .

Projects

  • DRDO NETRA, software to intercept online communications.
  • Nipuna, CAIR scientists developed an artificial intelligence expert system shell called Nipuna in the early 1990s. Nipuna was a computer programme designed to solve complex problems and offer human-like decision-making abilities. Nipuna could monitor the health of radars.
  • SecOS, Secure Operating System.
  • Muntra - unmanned ground vehicle manufactured at the Ordnance Factory Medak.
  • Neural network-based software.
  • Command and control system - Around early 2000, CAIR started the development of a command and control system for decision support. Mahalingam told the media that the system was handed to the Indian Army. CAIR also provided software for the fusion of sensor information for battlefield surveillance.
  • Natural Language Processing
